Thread: Heavy hunting 7-6.5 PRC

So what is the difference in case capacity between the 7 saum and that one? Would a saum throated the same performer a well?

Its runs around 2 grains more powder but you need great brass, there isn't any......

With this Saum https://www.nzhuntingandshooting.co....7-saum-108374/

I'm running 3-4 grains under book max to try to avoid stamping the brass, 2-3 grains under & it stamps, run book max and it stamps & shaves/shiny with very little to no bolt lift indication

It shoots very well and had ridiculous accuracy at the top loads with several powders but they were clearly over loaded

It is pushing the 168 VLDH at 2780-2800 fps from 20" & ADG brass

thats interesting a friend of mine has had issues with clickers I think you fixed iv had no problems but my reamer is designed around ADG brass my 168 load is also 2930 for accuracy 20' barrel it speed up to 2975 after brake in and lost accuracy slowed it back down and its phenomenal again

It will also depend on the action, this Saum will definitely go faster but at the cost of stamped cases
